The following report presents the results of evaluation activities for the Encore Leadership Corps over the course of the program from its launch in the Spring of 2010 until 2013. The evaluation utilized quantitative survey work with a sample of 77 ENCorps members and semi-structured interviews with ENCorps participants who had been enrolled in the program for at least one year in order to examine process findings about the program, understand the personal impacts of participating in ENCorps, and better understand the impacts of ENCorps member volunteer work in their communities. We analyzed findings from interviews and surveys to identify success and challenges within the ENCorps program. We included in our examination the program's initial goals, objectives and outcomes, as well as changes that evolved over the course of the program and unanticipated outcomes. Analysis of interview and survey findings highlighted the successes and challenges of the program, both in the context of the program's initial goals, objectives, and outcomes, but also in the context of unanticipated outcomes, as well as the outcomes of the program as they have evolved over the course of the program.
